Project tracker
Projected lift date: TBD
Star Blanket Cree Nation in Saskatchewan is home to approximately 300 people on reserve.
There is 1 long-term drinking water advisory:
- a boil water advisory on the Star Blanket Public Water System was set in January 2007 and became long-term in January 2008
The advisory affects approximately 82 homes and community buildings such as the band office, health care facility and Early Learning Centre.
Construction of a new water treatment system to meet the long-term needs of the community is complete. The new system is producing water that meets all requirements. Once operations have improved, the community should be in a position to lift the long-term drinking water advisory.
